All of it: the words, the place, the proof
Evaporative coolers are the valley's main defense against 105°F weeks, and a cooler running on crusted, scaled pads moves half the air at double the water. A pre-season pad swap and clean is a one-hour job that returns the machine to its design performance.
Fund it for $220. Proof lands onchain when it's done.
How this work is done
How this work is done
A documented method, so this packet comes out the same whoever does it.
Steps
- With the occupant, power off the unit at the disconnect and shut its water line; photograph as found.
- Remove the panels and old pads; rinse scale and sediment from the pan and check the pump screen.
- Fit correctly sized new pads, reassemble, restore water, and confirm even pad wetting.
- Photograph the finished unit and old pads; log the pad size and date for the next swap.
What counts as done
- As-found unit photo
- Finished unit photo with new pads
- Old pads + dated size log
Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.
The standard this serves
Energy Efficiency Audit. Energy efficiency work begins with the walkthrough audit, the kind the ASHRAE standard describes: a trained eye moving through a building, reading the bills, the walls, the lights, and the equipment, and coming out with the short list of fixes worth doing first. Mastery looks like an auditor who can feel where a building is bleeding money within the hour, and prove it on paper. That instinct is trained by repetition on real buildings. This packet is one repetition: one system observed, one reading taken, one finding recorded the way the standard asks.
What is promised, and what is not
Three separate acts, never one: a vote is a free signed preference that moves no money; a pledge is free signed backing intent, balance-checked, that moves no money and never marks the packet funded; funding is a real payment that backs the wage. Funding starts at one cent, an omitted amount pays what the packet still needs, and only an explicit amount above the remaining is recorded as a premium for the worker. Money settles only on accepted proof. An agent can fund it in one x402 call: POST /nurture/fund {"workId":"WORK_1789699761105_4xexxvq","funderWallet":"0xYOU"}.
Claiming is free. You sign to prove the wallet is yours: no card, no deposit, no fee. Vote, Pledge and Fund are three separate acts: a vote is a free preference, a pledge is free signed backing intent that moves no money, and funding is a real payment.
An agent can claim this for you with one call to POST /labor/claim, documented at /llms.txt.
Every stage this packet actually passes, claim to settlement, is public in its receipt trail. A stage that has not happened is not claimed.
Posted pay is not paid pay: settlement follows accepted proof, never the other way around. Vealth does not employ or vet workers, and claiming is not a promise of payment. See how proof and receipts work.
Other acts: vote, pledge, fund
